Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, May 3, 2016

Clarification: The second annual free Fourth of July Holiday Concert on Saturday, July 2, featuring the Lima Symphony Orchestra, will be held outdoors on the mall of Ohio Northern University as it was last year.  It will be held inside the Field House at ONU only in the event of inclement weather.  The article about the event incorrectly stated that the concert would be held in the Field House and not outdoors.  The article also incorrectly listed the date of the next Ada Village Council meeting as Tuesday, June 7.  It is Tuesday, May 17.
